Our Programs
Since 2000, ArtWell has worked with hundreds of amazing partners including schools, libraries, diverse faith-based organizations, health and social-service providers, and community organizations to serve nearly 1,000 students per year across the Greater Philadelphia region.
Through writing, music, poetry, visual arts, storytelling, performance, spoken-word, and other art forms, students discuss personal and social issues, explore their emotions and identities, cultivate their creativity, and develop deeper understandings of who they are in relation to the world around them.
Upcoming Events
Join us on February 25th for a “lunch-and-learn” style webinar focused on the connection between artmaking and community building in classrooms and beyond! During this session, we’ll unveil our new mission statement and then welcome Dr. Monique Liston to explore the concept of Beloved Community—a vision of collective care, justice, and shared humanity that calls us to live and lead with love.
Date & Time: Wednesday, February 25th at 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM ET
